I was also having a lot of trouble learning anything from running OOo under

around. I ended up trying to do it by adding a printf, rebuild, run, rinse,

Did you turn off compiler optimisations? I had the same problem (gdb
hopping around in a non-intuitive way, and the values of some useful
variables were optimised out) until I turned them off.

If that's the problem, you can do it by configuring with
--enable-debug, or if you're just building a single module you can do
"build -- debug=t dbglevel=2"

I think "dbglevel=1" also turns them off, and will give less noise,
but I haven't checked.

Whee! I was resisting another full build; I didn't realize this was part of the problem.

Thanks!
